$IONQ Inc.(IONQ)$ When you read press releases or news about quantum computing, you'd certainly come across the term "qubit". - "Google unveils the 105 Qubit Willow Chip..." - "Ionq achieves 36 Algorithmic Qubits..." - "D-Wave: The Advantage system... with over 5,000 qubits..." - "Rigetti launches 84-qubit Ankaa-3 quantum computer..." In simple terms, a qubit is the basic unit of information that a quantum computer uses to perform calculations. It might make sense that the more qubits the more powerful quantum computers will be. However, that is simply not true since qubits are not the same nor perfect. In this post, I'll explain the differences in qubit technologies and what really matters beyond the qubit count. Hopefully, this will help y
